This is a card I made for November's Monthly Challenge for the Girls of the Baker's Dozen. This group is a kind of mystery image swap, where we each get an image and additional items to complete the challenge each month. Paula was the hostess and sent us a bunch of cute winter images and sentiments.This is a perfect image to post today as we were to get up to 8 inches of snow this weekend..............................Here is the inside of my card:

This was a fun kit and I am up for the next kit--but that will not be until January. Stay tuned...........................

This card is for the monthly swap that Pam hosts on SCS. Each month we make 10 cards and include a matching envelope. They can be any theme for any month. All of the swappers are wonderful and I have received awesome cards each and every month. I inked up a new Stampin' Up set and I really like the warm colors of the card.Here is the inside of my card:

This card is for a Mystery Swap on SCS. A group of us are doing a bi-monthly swap where we all use the same mystery image, sent to us by the hostess. This swap was created by Forest Ranger—Jeanette and we are now into our second time around. Melina is the hostess this month and she said she challenged us to use three images along with a sentiment on our card. She will swap the cards and send everyone the next image, which will be provided by Jeanette. That will be the start of round three and I know it will be another fun time!

It is time for another The Three Musketeers post. I am posting this on the 10th as I had a Design Team card posted yesterday and I wanted to be sure this image had its own day! We are ready to showcase the card we all created with the image that Kelly provided this month for Card #13! I am next for the December challenge, so be sure to come back to see what we create!

For our card this month, Jeanette sent us an image that she said she loved, but was challenged as how to use it. I too thought it was pretty and I hope my card lives up to her challenge!I am so happy that Jeanette picked Kelly and I to color up surprise images with her every month. I do reflect on their friendship every season!!!!!

Here is the inside of my card:

This is the second of the two cards I made for Karly's Leaves and Trees swap on SCS. We were to create cards for any season or holiday as long as we had a tree or leaves on it. I used another Stampin' up set--Sheltering Tree. I really like the versatility of this set!My other card for this swap was posted yesterday--I hope you saw it!

This is the one of the two cards I made for Karly's Leaves and Trees swap on SCS. We were to create cards for any season or holiday as long as we had a tree or leaves on it. I went with my favorite Stampin' up set of all times--Lovely as a Tree. Will 2016 be the year it finally is retired? I hope not!I am sad the photo does not show the sparkly trees very well as I used Stampin' Up's Iridescent Ice Embossing Power. I think the card looks like trees shining in a dark night with a full moon above................ My second card for this swap will be posted tomorrow--please come back and see it!
